Hillington: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you come to Hillington?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hillington and the rest of Norfolk. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PE31 postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Hillington

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
